I am a storyteller. I work across 360 campaigns from strategy and concept through creating stills, motion and design assets for owned and paid media. My work has appeared on TV, social media, billboards and in print and digital advertising. I solve problems, am obsessed with the tiny details and love to explore new technologies and try new things to find innovative solutions. My commercial photography and art directing clients include Netflix, Walmart, Marriott, and Dunkin’. My editorial photography and writing has appeared in Wired, Parenting, New York Magazine, WSJ and the cookbook, Make This Tonight, among other publications. I love collaborating with other creatives and am particularly interested in sustainable living and in working with brands and on projects that are environmentally and socially responsible.

I grew up in Vermont, riding horses and exploring the woods, rivers and mountains. My passions for theater, magazines and studio arts lead me to photography, which I studied along with communications and creative writing at Emerson College. I continued my education in NYC as a TA at International Center of Photography, intern for Mary Ellen Mark and assistant and digital tech for Joseph Cultice, Andrew Eccles and Matt Hoyle, among other talented photographers. I built my own photography business and clients before my interest in strategy, layout and ideation lead me to pursue art and creative direction, which ultimately became my full time pursuit.

Sunshine and waves lured me to Los Angeles, where I live with my husband and son. I love food, yoga and being with friends and family, preferably in nature, biking, surfing, hiking, camping and gardening. I pursue visual art practices including printmaking and shoot medium format film photography, which enables me to flex my creative muscles outside of work.
